The concert given under the auspices oil
Mountain City Lodge No. Sc, A. A OF l.
q s. W., in Mannercbor hall, was a cue
cess in every particular. The selections
were all rendered in an artistic manner,
and reflected credit upon the performers
A neat sum was realized for the projectors.

fectioner, has made ample preparation loi

1t has been q long tim since the water
works were commenced, and now that the
plant is so nearly completed, our people
feel a sense of relief. We won't have to
listen any longer to discussions as to
whether the engineer is competent
or not, whether the plans upon
which the work is done are
the best, whether the cost was more than
necessary. 1t is to be hoped that all
these questions will be labelled Chest
nut" and hung on their proper hooks IN
the closet of the long forgotten past.
How much valuable wind has been
wasted.jn this discussion no one can
ever estimate, but it is probable that
the coming political campaign will not
create any more ill.feeling than have dill
f~erences Of opinion concerning this great
topic of three years discussion. However,
a great deal of the dormant feeling of dis
satisfaction which still lurked in the breast
of many was entirely dispelled by the first
squirt" described ID the REGISTER a few
DAYS AGO. We think that when a few
trained men from the Wheeling fire de-
partment come over Il give our people
a practical illustration OF what a good
thing our city has in her water works, the
community will clasp hands as two broth
ers and give thanks in concert that all IS
well that ends well, and when the plant
commences bringing in a substantial reVe-
nue., the silver lining Of those dark clouds
will show itself, and no further investiSa'
ton will be asked.
